A new logo for Madame Web has been revealed, with a red and blue spider casting the title character's shadow. This may mean a lot of nothing at all, but it's a surprisingly cool visual nonetheless. 

The comic book version of this character didn't gain her powers from a spider, but with everyone from Aña Corazón to Mattie Franklin expected to factor into the story, it may well be the source of their abilities. It's hard to say given the secrecy surrounding the project, and little has been revealed ahead of its release next year. 

Madame Web is an intriguing movie, that's for sure, and one that strongly suggests Sony plans to explore the mystical side of the Spider-Man mythos. How Peter Parker factors into all of this remains to be seen, though there are rumblings online the story takes place before the wall-crawler is even born. 

In fact, between a number of rumours and what's been revealed seen in set photos, we have reason to believe a pregnant Mary Parker will be front and centre in the story, with Madame Web assembling a female group of heroes to protect her. One popular theory even suggests she's sent to the MCU, hence why that world has a Spider-Man and Sony's doesn't. 

It's an intriguing concept, but not one we have much faith in the studio managing to pull off!

If Madame Web is going to explain why there is no Spider-Man in the reality inhabited by Venom and Morbius, that's certainly...unique. We just hope it doesn't negatively impact the MCU's web-slinger in any way, especially following comments last year from producer Avi Arad which saw him heavily criticise Sony for deciding to share Spidey with Marvel Studios.

S.J. Clarkson (The Defenders) is directing Madame Web from a screenplay by Morbius scribes Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless. Following another delay last year, the movie is currently expected to swing into theaters on February 16, 2024.

Take a closer look at this newly revealed logo below.

@Brand0n - What's sad is that these are real people who are working and spending their time and hours to make a living while making this movie. It isn't their fault but the corporation behind the decision making these failed projects just to keep Spider-Man outside of the MCU. And people get attached to these projects and then lose out on work for sequels because the movie was destined to flopped.

Everything about this project sounds kinda intriguing and yet then I read…

“ S.J. Clarkson (The Defenders) is directing Madame Web from a screenplay by Morbius scribes Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless.”

I don’t have much faith as Sony haven’t proved themselves at all competent at making Spider-Man related products.
Like Venom 2, I think they will push some ‘Big Reveal’ credit scene to get people in the seats, but I expect this to flop unless it is soooo good word of mouth spreads.

I would be more convinced if the blue was more Spider-Man blue like the spider in Amazing Spider-Man. Sony keeps wasting good characters in bad movies.

Sometimes I wish that Sony had folded in 2016 and Spider-Man was properly back at Marvel.

But other times I remember that the Spider-Verse sequel comes out this year. The likes of Madame Web are the price of doing business.

I feel if this movie were to just drop without any press or anything it will be recieved better than Morbius was. Will be a financual flop then I imagine but the movies are hardly going for the awards.

I still think Morbius wasn't the train wreck many made it out to be (till the God awful post credit scene)

I still find it hilarious that a producer from another studio can dictate how and when (and indeed if) Sony uses Spider-Man, but DC Studios still doesn't have full control over Batman.
Origame
Origame - 1/14/2023, 6:26 PM
@ObserverIO - ...what do you mean about batman?
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 1/15/2023, 4:35 AM
@Origame - In that DC Studios has no say over Matt Reeves The Batman movies or series or even the Joker sequel. Those are Warner Bros. rather than DC Studios.

This is why Reeves met with Gunn and Safran recently. To make sure they're not tripping over each other.
Reeves doesn't want his Batman to be a part of their universe, so Gunn and Safran are trying to work around the problem.

If they had the power that Kevin Feige has, they would be able to fold Batman into their universe without Matt Reeves' permission. Or cancel it outright and start a new Batman of their owm.

Now they do still have the ability to start a second Batman franchise, but you can see how that might be problematic, in terms of brand confusion and competition.

The funny thing is that there's no legal problem. WBD completely own these characters in full so Zaslav could have easily given DC Studios the same control as Kevin Feige, but he didn't.
Now the reasons why he didn't are logical in that The Batman and Joker are two of DC's bigger successes both critically and commercially, recently. But it still means that what he wanted (a Kevin Feige) he still doesn't have.

He's been distracted by the shiny box office of two movies. Like DC Studios would be incapable of making a Batman movie that would be successful or something.

Whereas Feige gets to control the output of Spider-Man, telling Sony they're not allowed to use him in their movies, when Disney doesn't even own the character.

It's hilarious how Zaslav can't see the difference. This is why he will probably fail. Unless DC has a plan. Or half of one.
Origame
Origame - 1/15/2023, 7:01 AM
@ObserverIO - ...what you're describing is just how parent companies work. They want the batman and joker to keep going, they will. It's the same situation going on with marvel and disney, with the only difference being that they are happy to just let feige do his thing.

As for what's going on with feige and Sony, that simply isn't true. Sony agreed to those terms as the ones in control of Spiderman. They can change their minds at anytime and if feige doesn't agree with it then Sony will take Spiderman from marvel. We already saw that after far from home, where Sony and Disney disagreed with the deal so Sony effectively took Spiderman from them until a new agreement was struck.

Tom Holland as Spiderman is a Sony employee.
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 1/15/2023, 9:20 AM
@Origame - Yeah all of that is true too.

But given that, Sony are letting a man from another company dictate, as per the deal and WBD has divided their IP between WB and DC.

It still stands that DC don't have control over a character their parent company legally owns and Marvel do have control over a character their parent company does not legally own.

That is hilarious.

And if Zaslav wants a powerhouse like Feige, he should rectify this ASAP. I don't care that The Batman made $700+ million. That's peanuts compared to what Batman will make if given completely to DC Studios.
Origame
Origame - 1/15/2023, 9:53 AM
@ObserverIO - first of all, no dc hasn't divided their ips. In fact Gunn is working alongside reeves for the batman sequel and will make his own version of batman for his dcu.

Second, it really doesn't matter since they objectively own the rights. If they don't like the deal they can back off and take Spiderman with them.

And finally, disney does legally own these characters. They own it because they own marvel studios. Same with Warner Brothers and dc. If disney wanted to, they could do exactly what wb is doing and make their own iron man movie separate from the mcu. You're confusing what these companies are ok with doing vs what they are legally allowed to do.
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 1/15/2023, 12:09 PM
@Origame - WBD has divided their IP. Gunn is not working alongside Reeves. Gunn has no control. The Batman is a WB picture, not a DC Studios picture. Joker is also WB not DC Studios.

Disney does not own the option Spider-Man. Sony does. They can back out, but they don't.

Similarly WBD could have given DC Studios full control. But they didn't.

I think you're arguing about semantics. You must be bored.
Origame
Origame - 1/15/2023, 2:29 PM
@ObserverIO - ...not according to Matt reeves.

https://deadline.com/2023/01/james-gunn-superman-matt-reeves-batman-dc-plan-1235221498/

The batman 2 will be a dc studios film. Like all dc films from now on. It just won't be a dcu film.

And again, you made the claim of rights when dc studios owns the rights to batman. The batman 2 is being made because it was already basically greenlit before dc studios even existed. Gunn is making a batman for the dcu. The IP isn't being split up. If it were there would be no batman for the dcu, but Gunn confirmed there will be.
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 1/15/2023, 2:44 PM
@Origame - That link basically confirms that The Batman will not be DC Studios.

"They’re going to be talking to me about what they’re doing in their ten-year plan or certainly what’s in the near future as well so that we can understand that we’re not—it’s air traffic control—we don’t want to be crashing into each other. We want to support each other."

DCU is what "They" are doing as opposed to The Batman which is what Reeves is doing.

Also, I know that WBD owns Batman. That's why it's ridiculous that DC Studios don't have full control. Are you just ignoring what I've repeatedly said for the sake of argument?
Origame
Origame - 1/15/2023, 2:55 PM
@ObserverIO - dude, he's saying there that the batman franchise is gonna be separate from the 10 year plan Gunn is working on. It's not saying it's gonna be separate from dc studios. He literally says after that quote that he looks forward to working with Gunn.

Dc studios isn't a brand new studio. It's basically just dc films with a different name. And guess what? Dc films made the batman. So dc studios is gonna make the batman.

And again, they have as much control as marvel studios. Hell, even based on your logic Gunn would be dictating the direction of the batman 2 simply by having his batman do something that intersects with what reeves has planned.
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 1/15/2023, 3:36 PM
@Origame - "Each other".
"We don’t want to be crashing into each other."
"We want to support each other."

Each other. So Gunn and Safran are not doing The Batman.

There needs to be two entities for an each other. Reeves is one, DC Studios (Gunn and Safran) is the other.
If Gunn and Safran were producing The Batman, it wouldn't be "Each other" at all.

When he talks about working with them, this would be in reference to supporting each other and trying to get out of each others way. That's the "Working with" them.

Can you imagine hearing about how Peyton Reed was sitting down with Kevin Feige to hear about Feige's 10 year plan and to tell him about his plans for the Ant-Man franchise so that they can make sure their plans don't "Crash into each other"?
That would be preposterous.

This is not an underling having a meeting with his boss, this is two equals coming together to discuss their respective franchises with each other and make sure they're not in direct conflict with each other.
Origame
Origame - 1/15/2023, 3:41 PM
@ObserverIO - "I'm really excited to hear about what they're doing and to be working with them." You're only reading part of it.

And no, Gunn is definitely above reeves in this regard. However, he's treating the situation where he gives reeves his full blessing to work as is on his corner. Again, this is a dc studios movie and Gunn is head of dc studios.
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 1/16/2023, 4:20 AM
@Origame - Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

I know you've been on this site for a long while so godwilling you (and I) will still be around when The Batman 2 comes out, then one of us will get to tell the other one "Told you so".
Origame
Origame - 1/16/2023, 6:38 AM
@ObserverIO - I mean I guess so. But dc studios is just a rename of dc films. And dc films made the batman. So dc studios will make the batman 2 and Gunn will oversee it like he will every dc studios movie.

These Sony spin-off films never have any good ideas. My main gripe. They cash-in on shlock. A good idea in my eyes would be a Tombstone vs Hammerhead crime thriller. They're both bad guys and no antihero stuff. Just a slice of life crime film in the vein of a Guy Ritchie movie.

Sony I give you permission to steal. I just want to see it on screen
